I suggest shopping around and ask if you can pick on several different types to see how you like it over all. I am a novice at best at playing but know a slew of people that play. I hope this helped.

Anyway I ended up getting a Taylor model 110 when I originaly went back to buy a Martin! The Taylor 110 gets out good and has that higher pitch like a d 18 everyone loves! It's a lot cheaper on the wallet too! Good luck with your quest!

- A Composite Acoustics Legacy or Bluegrass model or a CA Tim Stafford Model. CA's are graphite but are braced to sound like a Martin or Taylor. They REALLY sound NICE!! I have 2 and I'd take mine over any Martin or Taylor any day!!

- Martin has an introductory line in their "X" series they are easy to play, still have a great sound and are not as expensive... I just thought I would add that even though it has been a while since you posted your blog. Did you wind up getting something already?
